PREPOSITIONS OF TIME

.02

The Christmas season is also called: Christmas time, Holiday season, The holidays, Festive season, Winter holidays, (northern hemisphere), Summer holidays (southern hemisphere), or New Year's holidays.

In American English we can also hear: "for Christmas"Examle: I'm going home for Christmas. (The Christmas season or on Dec. 25th))

In American English, "on Christmas" is often used to refer to both the festival season and the 25th of December.

However, "on Christmas day" is considered correct in both British and American English, as well.

Traditionally in British English, "at Christmas" means during the Christmas season. In Western Christianity, the Christmas season runs from December 25 (Christmas Day) to January 5; "on Christmas Day" means the 25th of December.

Other examples with "on" and "at": "on New Year's Day", or "On Easter Sunday" , "at Easter".
